During the 2009 Sunday School and Discipleship International (SDMI) Convention, Adult Ministries International recognized outstanding leaders. Mrs. Cheryl Roland received the Servant Leadership Award for Women’s Ministries.

What challenges do you think Women’s Ministries face as we reach a post-modern culture?

Recently you’ve been involved in the development of PoWeR—Pastors’ Wives Resources? Why do you believe this ministry is important?
